During the reign of Charles I and Philip II the Spanish monarchy achieved a great territorial expansion with presence in the five continents. However, the control of this large territory caused several problemsand wars.
From the late 19th century onwards Industrial powers began to use their advanced economies, armies and technology to take over territories with no state organisation.
Between 1870 and 1914 they created huge colonial empires in Africa, Asia and Oceania.
Francisco de Goya is one of the most important artists in Spanish history. He is considered one of the percursor of the contemporary art. In this ppt. we can find some of his most representative paintings.
The industrial Revolution inSpain took place later than in countries in northern Europe. Spain's Industrialisation was characterised by the excessive importance of agriculture in economy and social dominance of the rural elite in politics.
The new bourgeois society also revolutionised the artistic tastes. Linked to the new political ideals, the art experienced a new age of development during the 19th century.
During the end of the 18th Century and the first half of the 19th Century, a series of liberal revolutions spread across Europe, inspired by the French Revolution of 1789.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

3. The decline of Spain: Factors
• Decline of Spanish empire started in the 17th
century, and lasted the whole century, during the
reigns of Philip III, Philip IV and Charles II.
• These kings were considered weak monarchs who
delegated their functions of government in their
favourites (Validos), who used the power in their
own benefit.
• The royal treasury (Hacienda) was in debt several
times, due to the costs of the wars and the
inefficient administration of the resources that came
form America.
• The “landlord mentality” created an unproductive
society, the privileged aspired to live off the rents
and didn’t invest their benefits to stimulate
production.
• Most of the population lived into poverty, ordinary
people paid the rents to the privileged and most of
the taxes to the Crown and clergy.

5. The loss of dominance: From the diplomacy to the aggressive
policy.
• Diplomatic policy Philip III: Agreements with
England and Netherlands known as “Twelve Years’
Truce”
• Aggressive policy of Philip IV and Olivares:
• The “30 Years’ War” started in Europe in 1618, a conflict
between Catholics and protestants that lasted until 1648
• Spain entered in the “30 Years’ War” in 1635, due to the
interests of the Count-Duque of Olivares to maintain the
dominance in Europe.

Spain and Austria defeated.
• In the “Peace of Westphalia” Spain recognised the
independence of Netherlands. Spain began its decline in
Europe.

The battle of Rocroi (1643) was the first
defeat of the Spanish Tercios.
6. The revolts of 1640
• Olivares wanted to centralised the kingdom with two
measures:
• Creation of “El Gran Memorial”: Establish the laws of Castile for
all the Spanish territories. The objective was to centralise the
kingdom.
• Creation of “Unión de Armas”: All the Spanish territories would
contribute with troops and taxes as Castile did, cancelling the
privileges and “fueros” that some territories had.
• These measures caused revolts against Olivares and the
Crown in Andalusia, Aragon, Navarre, Portugal and
Catalonia. The most important ones were:
• Catalonia: Started as an uprising of peasants, against the
imposition of new taxes and hosing of troops in the territory.
The ruling class joined the rebellion and put Catalonia under
the sovereignty of France. The insurrection ended in 1652,
when the troops of the king took Barcelona.
• Portugal: The Portuguese nobility demanded independence,
proclaimed the Duke of Braganza as a King of Portugal. With the
support of France and England, in 1668 Spain recognised the
independence of Portugal. Coronation of the duke of Braganza
as John IVof Portugal.

Pyrenees”:
• Spain recognised the lost of Artois, Sungdau, Roussilion and
Cerdanya, which became part of France.
• Wedding compromise of Luis XIV of France and Maria-
Theresa the daughter of Philip IV: It will end up bringing a
new dynasty in Spain the Bourbons.
• Under the reign of Charles II:
